Our campsite was down a hill (we had to back our camper downhill and then make a turn). Wouldn't have been so bad but the site was very uneven. We had to put the camp up on blocks to raise the one side up, a lot. First step into camper was very high.

Site was a bit sloped and required leveling blocks but it was a nice waterfront space, private on the lakeside. Should have brought our kayaks. Nice and quiet and woodsy. We've been here before and will come again.

Great staff. Everything was good with only exception being low water pressure.
Juicy Seafood in Smyrna serves delicious catfish.

We traveled from NC to CA and back and stayed at campgrounds all along. Poole Knobs was our absolute favorite and we plan to visit again in the Fall.

The worst camping experience I have ever had, with Tri falling down everywhere, smashing out a guy‘s back windshield in his BMW and people there just acted like they didn’t care, and he showed them the same day that one busted out his windshield one that was going to fall and they didn’t care, well the next day it fell and missed the front of his car by about 2 feet, plus him and his dog, I would remove both can’t post that you have there, and I heard they had a work order to remove 300 limbs and you only removed 150 , So no it was sad
